REPLY TO 05/21/93 12:18 FROM PHYSHARE@PSUVM.BITNET "Sharing resources for high
school physics": Need ideas for science with toys

Physics of Toys ideas:

1. There are these small toy chicks which chirp when you touch the
electrodes on the bottoms of their feet, thus completing the
circuit.  You can have the kids hold hands in a circle and put the
chick between adjacent kids with one touching each foot.  If anyone
breaks the circuit it stops chirping.  There are lots of other
things you can do -- different types of circuits, more than one
chick, etc.

2.  The crash-test dummy car has a realistic crush space which
prevents the dummies from injury as long as the wear their seat
belts.

3.  There are tons of musical instrument toys.....

4.  There's that demonstration with the basketball on the bottom and
the tennis ball on top and you drop them together...
